Catapult Chicago is a selective community of technology startups located in the heart of Chicago’s River North neighborhood.

We're a unique cross between an incubator and a co-working space with a peer-selected community of talented, ambitious, like-minded entrepreneurs.

Founded by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs, Catapult Chicago is the only non-profit working space for Chicago startups that have demonstrated business traction.

WHERE STARTUPS COME TO SCALE

Instead of asking analysts, investors and committees to deem which startups have the potential to scale, our peer selection model empowers our current in-house founders to decide which companies will make innovative additions to the Catapult community.

After successfully accelerating, scaling and mentoring more than 30 startups, we can confidently say that democratizing the entrepreneurial process leads to incredible results where businesses not only grow, but thrive - because collaborating with people at the same stage of the startup game makes a world of a difference.

MORE THAN JUST OFFICE SPACE

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

Founders Forums : A bi-monthly meeting of founders where advice only begins with "In our experience...." These are the meetings our founders never miss.

The Everest Program : An innovative all-access mentoring program that connects Catapult startups to successful digital B2B or B2C companies that have scaled from their own early startup days.

Educational Programs : We bring in the experts and entrepreneurs that our companies need at this stage of the game.

Plus, it's not every office that has a kegerator, ping pong battles, wii tournaments, and killer skyline views.
